To be fair to the Aussies here, they've pointed out that it's a very fine day in Brisbane today and "your boys are just going to love that in the outfield."

To be honest we've all been taken in by the hype. It looks like the aussies want to come out of the traps flying, and we've duely obliged by bowling loose on a batting pitch. Also you have to remember how little preparation we've had, this test is when the players are going to get used to the conditions, so you can't really expect us to skittle them in a day. All in all, it's back down to earth for me, if we can draw this test I'll take that as a massive victory
